Event on Facebook

"Philosophy Conversation" is a series of open discussions organized in collaboration with the students in the philosophy course “Politics and Society” at the University of Iceland. The focus is on formal justice and power relations as well as capitalism and the value of things that cannot be monetized, such as the natural environment and human relationships.

In November four conversations take place and are open to everyone interested in the topics: 

Wednesday 06.11.2024 - Mass Canceling and Justice 
Friday 08.11.2024 - Civil Disobedience 
Wednesday 13.11.2024 - Nature and Society 
Friday 15.11.2024 - Technology and Society  

Opið samtal is a conversation platform where we explore different formats of discussions at the library and gain new skills in engaging in respectful exchange on topics that are close to our hearts.
